Although the severe cold wave, which came a week earlier, killed the ma- jority of the azaleas, the crowds proved to be larger than ever. There were the usual house parties, dances, golf tourmaments and one cannot fail to mention the spectacu- lar parade. We might add here that sis parade is supposed to be the largest in North Carolina. Beautiful- ly decorated floats, which included the attractive girls, military and ci- vilian dignitaries, comedian acts and marching bands, were the main at- traction in this two hour train. On hand for this occasion were such dignitaries as Miss Polly Ber- gen, the popular Papsi-Cola star, Bet- ty Jo Ring, Miss North Carolina of 1954, and Miss Sara Shane, popular movie star who reigned over the 1955 Azalea Festival.

While at the Azalea Fes- tival Band ara represented East Caro- lina in the parade and in many other activities. The high stepping majorettes and the fine playing ECC band under the direction of Mr. Herbert Carter also made a good showing for the college. Also the Collegians were no minor factor in making a showing for the school. They provided the music for the Teen-Age Ball, which was held Friday night. Just prior to the intermission of the Teen Age Ball, the Azalea Prin- cess and her attendants were pre- sented. On hand to crown the prin- cess was Miss Sara Shane, the Aza- lea Queen. On Saturday night a large crowd of ECC students attended the Coro- nation Ball, The Azalea Queen and her attendants, who came from vari- ous colleges and universities of North Carolina, were presented to- gether. Sunday brought the conclusion to a very successful Azalea Festival. “What is a Free Will Baptist?” will be the subject of discussion next Monday evening at eight o'clock in the Library auditorium. Rev. Robert B. Crawford and Rev.

Queries On Education One of the major problems facing the experts ‘ in the field of secondary education is the deci-]° sion on whether to continue the current trend of emphasis on specialized curriculums in high schools. There are those educators who wish to re-emphasize the validity of the theory of provid- |} ing high school students with a general type of |} education that will give them a background for any kind of work. The question is one that con- cerns students here because so many of us are going to be teachers in secondary education. There is always a current argument on the whether-or-nots of some philosophy of education. There are always some who take the position of the man who said “What does it matter how we get educated, just so we do it?” The disagreement with that opinion says that you can’t just get educated. The noted educational theorists, John Dewey and Harold Rugg, began promotion of an idea that was going to revolutionize education. It was the “child-centered” theory of education. The child was recognized as a “whole person” and teachers were to plan their activities after re- alizing that the school was for the student. Some people think the change is refreshing; others say it is disgusting because the teacher has to ask the student what he feels like doing and sit by shedding hair and gritting teeth while great big Joe in the seventh grade plays with goldfish for several hours. The point we wish to make is that there are several theories of education. They are important to us as potential teachers. Familiarity with sev- eral or all of them will do no harm. By by Faye B.

RAST " GAROLINGA me Who’s Who At East Carolina Julian Enjoys Varied Activities by Anne George and Emily Boyce Who’s Who spotlight this week falls on Bob Julian, Norfolk, Va., a Math major and science minor. lt’s easy to distinguish this active Virginian around campus this quar- ter since he is wearing a coat and tie, which could be considered quite an uneommon sight here at East Carolina.

Bol’s father hag been managing the cafeteria for the past nine years, but this is not the only reason that he chose East Carolina. Originally Bob had planned to go to Annapolis, but he decided against a military life . so ended up with one here. Bob had visited the campus many times before, so he was well acquainted with the many advantages offered here, of which the good science and math departments were his chief con- siderations, From the loos of Bob’s versatile , years, it cay readily be ascer- i that he is a leading student. 1 varsity football his fresh- 1 year, but due to a knee injury re suffered that year he was only able to play about half the games year.

Although this is a small and select group it would still take many more issues to get around to all of these people.

Some handyman around campus with a pencil has turned poetic! His writings may be found on ‘the walls of the men’s restroom in Joyner Li- brary. It’s a shame that some of the Betty Russell students here have no pride what- soever in their beautiful new library. After talking with Mr. Wendell Smi- ley, director of Joyner Library, we found that quite a few chairs have suffered from pencil markings and that people just throw cigarette butts down at any convenient place. “We are justly proud of this build- ing,” Mr. Smiley said. “And we would hope that the students would be equally proud of it, but the way that some students throw cigarette butts on the floors, and write op the fur- niture and the walls of the restrooms indicates that at least some students have no pride in the building at all. I don’t believe that all the students have that attitude toward the build- ing. It’s surely a very small minority. We have a mighty nice building here, and we hope that you students will help us keep it that way.” Here ’n’ There It was so cold at the ECC-Wake Forest game a while back that sev- eral of the Deacon boys built a roar- ing fire beside the stands. It’s no wonder that the Deacs got 14 runs; no one built a fire for the Pirates! Grace Kelly is a very deserving actress, but we were very disap- pointed when Judy Garland failed to win the Oscar last Wednesday night for “Best actress of the year.” We will be remembering her performance in “A Star s Born” for a long time. That’s around enough! Letters To Editor | Dear Fellow Students, Whenever we have dances on cam- pus there are many students who do not attend—not because they do not enjoy dancing, but because they fail to get dates. The boys are often too shy and timid to ask a girl for a date or either he neglects to ask a girl until it is too late to get a date. You will also find it true that b are hesitant about going stag i dance. When a boy asks a girl and she refuses he is often asking another ged against re girl’s excuse 10 going is that not Other reasons offered that doesn’t want to go stag or her dress not here, It is my belief that the boys on our campus should wise up and not keep waiting for some cute babe to come along and ask him. (If he does that \he will probably waiting for long time.) Another thing that boys should keep in mind that they should not wait until the last minute looking date Many girls have formed the opinion t it is unethical to invite boys to accompany them to a dance or any her social events on campus unless they go steady or are engaged. Most of functions are closed to outsiders so naturally one cannot attend without being invited lat all women’s colleges girls have no alternative but to invite boys to social events if they expect to have a date. Why, then, can’t the girls East Carolina feel free to invite boys to dances? Why don’t the various women’s dormitories sponsor dances on th ‘weekends? Although Wright will be a little large for such an event, may- be the basement of the gym could be used and a combo could be hired furnish main she was are is be a is to begin for a our college social here at music. This would be a good start toward | making girls feel free to invite boys from the college as well as outsiders. This would also liven up the weekends and maybe more students would en- joy staying up on the weekends. The May Day Dance and the Junior- Senior are the two big social events remaining for this school year. With these big occasions before us, why don’t students take in asking dates to the dance? Charlie Bedford INSIDE THE NEST by Joyce Smith to two A recent statement in Sports Echo of this paper (March 24) has caused quite a bit of discussion among the} students at East Carolina. The state- ment to which I refer is the fact that t Carolina Coliege employs more r uctors with Doctor’s degrees than does the University of North Caro- lina. Since the release of such a state- ment we have inquired deeper into the subject and we have found infor- mation that will clearly back up the statement. Within the “State-Support- ed Higher Education in North Caro- lina,” which is a report of the Com- mission on Higher Education, we were able to find a table showing the education level attained by facul- ty members in North Carolina Col- leges. Of East Carolima’s faculty 50.4% have doctor’s degrees while only 45.2% of the University of North Carolina faculty have doctor’s de- grees. Not only does East Carolina ; exceed the University of North Caro- lina but it also exceeds the other colleges throughout North Carolina. East Carolina, in this aspect, cer- tainly holds a definite advantage over the other colleges; and universities throughout North Carolina and this fact should certainly be recognized throughout the state. There has also been considerable discussion around campus about the May Day plans for this year. Prior to this year the event has been an afternoon affair, but earlier this year the SGA voted to change the after- noon activities to a dance. This, in my opinion, is a major improvement. If students will only strive to make it such, this event can become one of the highlights of the year. As it omce stood, the committee put forth much effort in trying to make it a successful occasion and no recognition was acquired. It has in the past been more of a “come as you are” affair to which students never gave any serious thought. Mm answer to questions about the dance being closed, from observing past attendance at the afternoon ac- tivities we have noted that parents of participants make up the largest part of the outsiders. Although the dance is closed to college students, their dates, and faculty members, the Queen and her attendants will be able to invite their parents. advantage | THURSDAY, APRIL 7, 1 a ES ~ eee POT POURRI by Emily S.

The fa jthat every girl on campus wants these drink 1 ichines, is a prominent feature that should be taken into consideration by the Administrat The following letter should be read by eve one! It contains many practical and concrete s vestions for removing the obstacles that D White pointed out stood in the way of instal the drink machines. In last week’s paper t was a letter to the Editor, written by Jim Phelps, president of the freshman class. In letter he made the suggestion that machines the one at the Pitt Theatre, could perhap stalled. This type of machine would eliminate t problems of stray bottles and unstored crates Dear Anne George: In answer to Dean White’s reasons for being able to have drink machines in the dort tories I would like to make these comments a! suggestions. Men at the present time come in and out dorms throughut the day. There is the laundr man, the cleaners man, the garbage collector : well as other maintenance men. They sometimes announce their presence and at other times don't but I believe that the girls are usually caut when they enter the halls if they aren’t dress Therefore, I don’t believe one more man would cause trouble. There are closets in the dorms which are filled up, or if they were more orderly arrange would provide space for the drink crates. H« ever, if necessary small “closets” could be bt from scrap material for the sole purpose of h ing these crates. I would like to suggest the pressing rooms as a good place to put the machines. They a usually located where the noise would bother on!) a few girls and I thfnk that if the area around the machines was an enforced quiet area nois¢ would not develop to too great a pitch anyway As it is, about 9:00 p.m. girls begin gathering in the halls to see who is going to the Soda Shop Which noise would be worse? Girls can be depended on to carry bottles t: the designated place. We have a few in our rooms now, but don’t we take them back to the service station when we return for more drinks? I think the girls would cooperate on this score. _ Couldn’t the maids replenish the drink ma chines during the day? I understand that it is neither a difficult nor a very time consuming job If vending and drink machines have been successful in the men’s dorms surely the girls could be just as dependable.
